Directions:

Which of the phrases (a), (b), (c), (d) given below each sentence should replace the phrase printed in bold to make the sentence grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is, mark (e) ie ‘No correction required’ as the answer.

Question : 16

I had liked her since the first time I had seen her.

a) did see

b) have seen

c) saw

d) No improvement

Discuss »

Answer: (b)

I started liking since I saw him. The process of seeing got completed in past. Therefore, V 2 of the verb ‘see’ should be used in place of ‘had seen’.

Hence the bold part should be replaced with ‘saw’.

Question : 17

Being injured, one of the migratory birds have not flown south.

a) have not flown

b) have not flew

c) does not flew

d) has not flown

e) No correction required

Discuss »

Answer: (d)

'One of the migratory birds' means ‘one bird out of many birds’.

Hence, for one bird singular verb must be used. The singular of ‘have’ is 'has'. Hence (d) is the correct choice.

Question : 19

She and Dad would has had loved Amit.

a) has loved

b) have loved

c) to loved

d) No improvement

Discuss »

Answer: (b)

When the subject is plural (she + dad) the verb must also be used in plural form.

Therefore, “has had loved” is replaced by “have loved”

Question : 20

This milk has got a funny taste — it can have gone sour.

a) may have gone sour

b) can go sour

c) had soured

d) No improvement

Discuss »

Answer: (c)

‘Can’ gives a sense of more certainty than ‘may’. The milk may or may not have gone sour.

There is a doubt. We can not say with certainty that milk has gone sour. So it is better to use ‘may have gone sour’ than ‘can have gone sour’.
